Thank you to everybody who came out to race at any point this summer! It was close at times (very close indeed last week) but we somehow made it through all thirteen (13!) races this summer without a single cancellation.

I'd like to thank Boulder Cycle Sport and Skratch Labs for being out there every week providing mechanical support and hydration, especially in these last few weeks with the extra hot late-summer weather. Yellowbelly also supported our endeavors by helping us out with this summer's numberplates and gift cards for prizes. Panache was also kind enough to provide us with an easy-up tent and gift cards. Last and certainly not least, we have RaceRite to thank for letting us use their timing equipment each week to provide you with instant and accurate results. A special shoutout must go to Matt Hudson who came out each week to run the timing system for us, as well as Dixon and Jenny who have been out there with us for the past few years running registration. Thank you all!

A couple notes: If you've won a Panache gift card in the last few weeks and it did not work, try again! There was a computer system issue that has now been resolved. With the storms that rolled through, things got a bit hectic last week and we did not get all the prized handed out. If you won a race and would like your prize, please contact me and we can arrange a way to get it to you.

"A" racers!! Like last year, we have cash prizes for the top three racers in the season standings. I am getting that organized and will contact each of you with instructions in the next couple of days. If you could send me contact info (email addresses) that would be helpful.

Series standings can be found via the link on the sidebar in the full web version of the blog.

Below you will find this week's final course, featuring The Corkscrew and the new section of trail next to it! Be sure to wear your best costume, as there will be extra prizes for the best men and women in costume. We may also add in a trick contest, so bring your A-game!

This race does count towards series points so bring your best race legs in addition to your costume. We do have some corrections to make to several results, so series results will be official by a week from Wednesday. We will announce the winners of the A men and women contests, and there will be a cash prize three deep. Winners will receive the details about how to claim their prize.

Results for Wednesday's races can be found here. Look here in the next few days for details about our final race on August 10, featuring the annual costume contest.

I also still have a few lost items, including the front wheel I've mentioned a couple of times. I'm not sure what I will do with it if nobody claims it, but most likely it will get donated to Community Cycles.
